New Preview Alpha 1904 Build – 1/10/2019

Happy New Year, Xbox Insiders! Starting at 2 p.m. PST today, we’ll be releasing the latest 1904 Xbox One system update to Preview Alpha (1904.190107-2015). This first update is meant to lay the groundwork for what’s to come, so while you’ll find fixes and known issues listed below, please keep an eye out for feature announcements as they’re ready to be previewed.
